## What it is
A React component wrapper around Brad Birdsall's Swipe.js touch slider library. It lets React apps render swipeable carousels with configurable options and programmatic next/prev controls.

## Use cases
- add a swipeable image carousel to a React app
- build a touch-friendly slider for mobile web
- create a paged content slider with next and previous buttons
- wrap Swipe.js in a React component with re-init on option changes
- implement a mobile-style onboarding pager in React

## When to choose
- you need a lightweight touch carousel in a React project
- you want to reuse Swipe.js options and API inside React
- you need simple continuous or non-continuous swipe panes

## When to avoid
- you need a full-featured carousel with lazy loading, autoplay, and accessibility features
- your project uses React Server Components or a framework incompatible with ref-based imperative APIs
- you need active maintenance and frequent updates

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: maintenance
- function: ui-components, animation
- domain: frontend, web-development, mobile-development
- platform: browser, cross-platform
- tags: react, carousel, swipe, touch-gestures, slider, nodejs
